2. Purpose/Intended Use: 3. Audience National Weather Service Service Description Document (SDD) Experimental National Weather Service Use of Live Streaming Videos (Facebook and Periscope) Part 1 - Mission Connection 1. Service Description: Periscope and Facebook Live are popular live, one-to-many video streaming broadcast applications (apps) for iOS and Android. Periscope and Facebook Live can be a useful tools for the National Weather Service (NWS) to further interact with customers and the general public. NWS will be providing experimental use of Periscope and Facebook Live to explore usefulness of the apps to the NWS mission and to solicit feedback from the broader community. 2. Purpose/Intended Use: With live-broadcasting applications (apps) such as Periscope and Facebook Live, you can now watch live events unfold and people can interact directly with the streamer by asking questions as it happens. The ability for NWS offices to instantly stream live video could open up a number of opportunities to explore, including: ● Daily morning briefings ● Severe weather briefings ● Behind the scenes shots ● Spotter training ● General weather briefings ● Meteorologist Biographies ● Ask-a-Meteorologist ● Balloon Release ● Training or teaching ● Storm Surveys Although the Periscope smartphone and Facebook apps are needed to conduct a broadcast, viewing videos is platform-independent. This means that once a link to a stream is shared via social media, anyone can watch it on any device whether they have the app or not. 3. Audience: This service has the potential to serve a wide audience base, ranging from the general public to our core customers. 4. Presentation Format: Streams will be available via Periscope and Facebook apps, which are available on iOS and Android devices, as well as via common video streaming formats/viewers using any number of devices; from smartphones to Personal Computers (PCs). 5. Feedback Method: Web-based feedback from the broader community will be sought via an NWS customer survey link on the web sites through June 30, 2019. After the evaluation period, a decision to proceed ​ ​ with testing, revise the test, expand the test, or to continue on the path to operational production and expansion to other offices will be made. Survey link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/EXPLive-stream ​ Questions, comments, or suggestions about the service may be directed to: Corey Pieper National Weather Service (NWS) Communications Office Social Media and Digital Strategy Lead 819 Taylor Street, Room 10A06 Fort Worth, TX 76102 Part 2 – Technical Description 1. Format and Science Basis: Periscope and Facebook apps are available on iOS and Android devices.

  • Twitter to Improving the Collective Health, Openness and Civility of the Public Conversation, and to Hold Ourselves Publicly Accountable to That Mission
    We are committed at Twitter to improving the collective health, openness and civility of the public conversation, and to hold ourselves publicly accountable to that mission. Twitter’s conversational health will be built and measured by how we help encourage open democratic debate, healthy civic discourse, and critical thinking. ​ The fight against such things as spam, malicious automation activity and coordinated disinformation campaigns goes beyond any single election or event. We work every day to give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers. To preserve that experience, we are always working to ensure that we surface for our users the highest quality and most relevant content first. While Twitter’s open and ​ real-time environment is a powerful antidote to the abusive spreading of false information, we do not rely on user interaction alone. In light of the upcoming European Parliament elections and in line with our commitments to the European Commission Code of Practice on Disinformation, we are taking active steps to stop malicious accounts and Tweets from spreading at scale, which involves trying to stay ahead of the constantly evolving tactics of bad actors. To try to achieve this goal, we have made a number of changes, including enhanced safety policies, better tools and resources for detecting and stopping malicious activity, tighter advertising standards, and increased transparency to promote better public understanding of all of these areas. Scrutiny of ad placements Safety in advertising on Twitter In order to circumvent the possibility of ads and ad placement misleading users, we employ strict policies at Twitter around advertising, thereby ensuring quality and safety on the platform.

So what is it exactly? TikTok is a free social media app that lets you watch, create, and share videos -- often to a soundtrack of the top hits in music -- right from your phone. It was originally available as musical.ly in the U.S. but was rebranded when the two apps merged in August 2018. With more than 100 million users, Tik Tok is incredibly popular, owing in part to its slick mash-up of features from other kid favorites.

O’Haver 2 and Neha Singhal 2 1 Human-Computer Interaction Institute, School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA 2 Department of Human-Centered Computing, School of Informatics and Computing, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, IN 46202, USA; [email protected] (A.B.); [email protected] (M.A.O.); [email protected] (N.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] (C.F.); [email protected] (F.C.) Received: 26 February 2020; Accepted: 25 March 2020; Published: 27 March 2020 Abstract: With the advent of mobile apps such as Periscope, Facebook Live, and now TikTok, live-streaming video has become a commonplace form of social computing. It has not been clear, however, to what extent the current ubiquity of smartphones is impacting this technology’s acceptance in everyday social situations, and how mobile contexts or affordances will affect and be affected by shifts in social norms and policy debates regarding privacy, surveillance, and intellectual property. This ethnographic-style research provides a snapshot of attitudes about the technology among a sample of US participants in two public contexts, both held outdoors in August 2016: A sports tailgating event and a meeting event. Interviews with n = 20 bystanders revealed that many are not fully aware of when their image or speech is being live-streamed in a casual context, and some want stronger notifications of and ability to consent to such broadcasting. We offer design recommendations to help bridge this socio-technical gap.
